Oscar Bobb, a winger for Manchester City, is being watched by Newcastle United, which intends to add players to their roster in the summer.
Journalists Danny Rust and Dean Jones have disclosed that Oscar Bobb, a winger for Manchester City, is being watched by Newcastle United. It is believed, meanwhile, that the Magpies would have to compete with Borussia Dortmund for the player who plays wide in Norway this summer.
Bobb’s Outstanding Ascent In the Etihad Stadium
During the previous season, Bobb was a respectable member of Pep Guardiola’s matchday team thanks to a few standout performances in the closing third. In 26 games across all competitions for Man City last season, the 21-year-old scored twice and provided a few assists.
The gifted winger only averaged 0.3 shots, 0.6 critical passes, and 0.8 dribbles per game in the Premier League since he spent the most of his time as a substitute. With 88.1% of his passes in the top division of English football completed, he has demonstrated accuracy when distributing the ball in the opponent’s half (data via whoscored).
Given that his current Manchester United contract expires in the summer of 2029, Newcastle may find it challenging to sign him this offseason at a reduced cost.
Should Eddie Howe, the boss of Newcastle United, pursue Bobb?
When the ball is at his feet, Bobb can dribble it really well and run some very risky plays when it’s out in the open spaces. He can shoot the ball accurately and viciously from a distance, and he has the vision to set up some great opportunities for his teammates up top.
Bobb would bring more firepower to Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe’s attack. He has what it takes to compete for regular first-team football at St. James’ Park in the coming seasons
As long as he keeps getting better every year, 21-year-old Bobb could become a future star in English football. It would be prudent for the Magpies to pursue a player with his caliber and potential this summer.
